What would be the problem be then/what should I try next? Thanks.

I did as you suggested.. nothing happened.. i couldn't hear anything bubbling.

So you think it is unlikely to be the cold water inlet? I don't think it is a pump issue was there is no water stuck in the machine. How easy it is to check the pressure sensor pipe?

I replaced the carbon brushes not too long ago.. but will look... I guess another thing to look at/it could possible be is the inlet valves maybe?? It seems to work fine on rinse only cycle, spin only is fine. Both hot and cold washes are the same problem, it doesn't seem to add another round of...

Thanks, I am not home till later this evening, but have been told that the machine is filing water and not changing it, doesn't rinse properly and the clothes stays dirty. It is taking/draining off water, but not filing again and rinse.

Did a rinse only cycle and that worked fine. Will try a spin only. A cold wash didn't work completely fine as it should. I will borrow a multimeter metre today, what do I need to do with that? Thanks for your help guys

Would taking it off and cleaning it with contact cleaner/acetone or alike help/work?

Other than the heating element and/or pump.. what else could be causing the problem or is it time to replace this machine?

It doesn't give an error as such, like E21 for example when the carbon brushes needed replacing. There doesn't seem to be any problems with the door as that is what the top hits on the search suggest. So is it likely to be heating element, pump or something else?

I don't have access to any electric meter unfortunately. On a cold cycle it works but doesn't rinse,it's spin only the first water which comes and not changing it.

A rinse cycle works okay - will try doing a cold wash cycle to see if that works okay to see if it is the heating element that has stopped working. Thanks for the pointers guys.

Hi all, I have a Bosch wab24161gb/05 washing machine. It has started playing up in that. -,when you start it,let's say choose programme 57 min it's taking 3 hours to finish. Its stops on 1 min and continuously working like it's just started, when you press the button for speed then gives you...

Everything looked fine on the boards.. there was no rust or "chalking"/white powered anywhere but I will go with it and see how long it lasts. For anyone interested Miele do a £289 fixed price repair.. but didn't check if they would cover my machine as usually they cover stuff from 15 years ago.

Some good news... I am not sure what happened but I put the machine back together today after taking it apart to check the 3 circuit boards on front panel and thought why not try the machine again... and it now works!. I did an empty rinse cycle and it worked without any errors. So I did a...

I get the flashing red light "Water inlet/drain indicator" when I put on a wash or rinse cycle, after it fills the drawer for a few mins/i can see the water coming in and hear the drain pump going - letting the water out the drain hose. Is that not the error message??
